Various tin pitis, mostly types with a hole in the name of the Sultan Baha-ud-din (1776-1803) of Palembang, but other types are also included. The coins are 17-20mm or so, 0.5-1g+. Very nice quality coins, most or all of retail quality. A few years ago these coins used to be retailed for 30$+, though now there are a lot of them on the market. Very nice study group - there are numerous varieties and dates, the group is unpicked and unsorted.  The coins are mostly pitis coins with a hole, but there are octagonal and Chinese-style coins, and early 19th century pitis without a hole. There are numerous varieties of these (described in Millies). The condition F-EF, with most coins on the better side. A few coins are damaged, but 90%+ of these are good enough for retail.

Multiple coins of this type are available. To order more than one coin, simply add this item to your cart. You can then adjust the quantity of coins you’d like to buy within the cart during checkout.

Palembang is a city in Sumatra, Indonesia. It was once a Portuguese colony, and later the seat of the Sultanate of Palembang. These coins used to be quite rare and expensive, until a number of large hoards made them generally available and relatively cheap.
